Then what was your goal in telling us about things created by theists?

You agree it's pathetic and ignorant to do this right?

Eg. Facebook was invented by an atheist therefore theists are hypocrites if they use it for apologetics.
Eg. Most Academy of Science members are atheists therefore religion is stupid.

I think people have been trolling you, no atheist in their right mind would argue like that. Its done as a joke, nothing more

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

What I think is that you've got some 'splainin' to do. We still are unsure why you brought this up in the first place.

Are you trying to say you admit to being pathetic and ignorant since this is what you did?

The thing is with people like you, atheists have two choices on how to deal with you. They either get incredibly frustrated and pissed off at your ignorance and insults, or they simply don't care and just troll.

No, we were definitely poking fun at your immaturity and intellectual dishonesty. No need to disguise what we think of your arguments.

Great. I look forward to the next scientific advance warning for a tsunami so 250k human lives can be saved.

And then you got real uppity when you decided that god was a better method at explaining this phenomenon. How's that working out for you?
